Morphological predictors of restenosis after coronary stenting in humans.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) impairs endothelial cell function by uncoupling endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) activity, which allows superoxide anion (O2*-)) to be generated rather than nitric oxide (*NO). Recent reports indicate that apolipoprotein (apo) A-1 mimetics inhibit the development of athe...
